Chapter 287 - What“s That? (2/2)

One of the spiders crawled to the top of the tallest tree and observed the environment.

Soon, the dust raised by the wolf-riders caught the spider’s attention. After that, the images were transmitted to Roland’s brain through their mental connection.

Roland opened a gap in the building’s wall and reduced his weight with Slow Landing, allowing him to climb the tree easily. Then, he saw the wolf-riders.

Were they here for him?

Roland did not want to cause any trouble during his search for the Magic Tower.

But things didn’t go as planned. Roland saw that the riders got off from their mounts and surrounded the hill he was on, before they pressed uphill.

As hundreds of people disappeared into the woods at the foot of the hill, Roland knew that he had to react.

Though he didn’t know how they found him, he couldn’t stay here anymore.

He didn’t consume much magic power this time. After two hours of rest, he was almost fully recovered.

Since those people dared to search the mountain, they had probably prepared magic restrictions or special gadgets to deal with him.

If he was surrounded by them, the consequences would be terrible.

Roland turned the building back into mud. Then, he swooshed himself to the sky and projected himself to the sea.

It was quite noisy when Roland was flying. Besides, the magic waves from the spatial bubbles were obvious too.

The dozen vulpera who had been aiming at Roland since the moment he took off dropped their bows helplessly.

Roland was too fast. They couldn’t predict his trajectory at all, and even if they could, their arrows couldn’t catch up with him.

Hirlow knew a thing or two about Mages, but when he saw Roland pa.s.sing him by from above and disappearing into the horizon, he was dumbfounded. “What’s that?”

It took Roland four minutes to reach the sea.

He really hated to give up halfway, not after he had already made it here. It was possible that he could find the Red Magic Tower after he crossed this sea.

However, the problem was that he couldn’t cross it at this point.

The sea was quite vast. In order to fly across it, he would need places to rest on his way.

Though it was possible to freeze the seawater with Ice Ring, a tiny piece of floating ice would be useless on the sea, because the waves on the sea were almost two meters high even without wind and could easily flip the ice.

As for bigger ice… How much magic power would it consume?

Creating ice in the sea was meant for him to recover his magic power. Wouldn’t it be self-contradictory if he wasted a lot of magic power on creating the ice?

Besides, the weather on the sea could be fickle. Should he be caught in a storm, even a large piece of ice wouldn’t be safe.

Standing next to the sh.o.r.eline, Roland was quite gloomy.

While he was sighing, he suddenly saw a squad of green human-shaped creatures running toward him with a weird gait from his left. He even heard their cries.

Observing them more closely, Roland found that they were fully green and had big eyes that looked like light bulbs. Together with their imposing chins, they were so hideous that they were like aliens.

“What’s that?”

Roland made exactly the same remark as Hirlow did earlier.
